WMGLD Recognizes 2015 Essay Contest Winners

The Wakefield Municipal Gas & Light Department (WMGLD) recently recognized seven Wakefield
5th grade students for the essays they submitted as part of the 7th annual WMGLD Energy
Conservation Essay Contest. Galvin Middle School students Madalyn LoCoco, Steven Woods,
Riley Suntken, Kymani Fleurme, Jonathan Guida and Brendan Jaena and St. Joseph’s School 5th grader
Stephanie Curran were honored at an awards celebration at Wakefield Community Access Television studios in Wakefield.

The seven winning essays were selected from among more than 300 essays submitted by fifth graders at the
Galvin Middle School and St. Joseph’s School. Each winner read his or her essay during the ceremony that was
recorded at the WCAT studios for airing at a later date.

To all Wakefield residents and businesses,

Several of our customers are being contacted by a fake agency telling them that they can lock into an electric rate for a certain period of time.

WMGLD is not affiliated with these groups and they have neither the authority nor the ability to lock in any rates for our customers.

Please disregard any calls you may receive from people making you such an offer.
